The safe list is a total joke. I don't have enough knowledge or time to verify it, but my gut tells me that once you eliminate all of the bolt action, single shots, side-by sides, borings, o/us and pumps, there isn't a whole lot left on the list. None of these longarms fall within the definition of AW, so the list is window dressing. It is a way to assure hunters that she isn't going after "their" guns, so everything is hunky dory. Divide and conquer.
